DISCRETION AND DISOBEDIENCE IN THE CHINESE EXCLUSION ERA |
29 Asian American Law Journal 49 (2022) |

Immigration Law and the Proportionality Requirement |
2 UC Irvine Law Review 415 (February, 2012) |
In a fog-smothered corner of San Francisco sits an aged building known as Lowell High School. It appears to be a typical high school filled with rowdy teenagers; however, to thousands of immigrant families, this building represents a ticket to an elite university and the fast lane to the American dream.

I show how the labels used to describe Asian ethnic groups at the state level reflected and were constrained by... |

Prohibiting the Employment of Unauthorized Immigrants: the Experiment Fails |
2007 University of Chicago Legal Forum 193 (2007) |

This asserted congruence between Jim Crow laws and affirmative action seems intellectually indefensible--but it is now a... |
